I generally thought she was right in the Freddie vs Bea saga. She was pestered and Q'd for 2 days, analysed endlessly by an annoying twerp, had her food taken away because of their pathetic rebellion, etc. And she told him his flaws and that he was negative, bad aura, etc. He was; constantly analysing, pestering and rebelling. That's not positive!

Something just didn't add up in the turnaround of behaviour from the night of the cigarettes argument, leading to the next couple of days, when she went from being Freddies Best Friend or ally, to his bully- her overall repulsion and need to stamp on his character. It more or less came out of nowhere. And it came as a shock to viewers..there was a reason people started labelling her "psycho", "sociopath" and so on.. It's that it seemed to reflect a certain, well in the most exaggerated form, an insanity... or someone that was completely off the wall. Because in the first instance of her criticism of him, it seemed to be wholly offensive and critical (ie. When they were lying in bed the night the food was taken away)..and the nature of her criticism was that he was turning into a *negative* force in the house.. So the theme was that she was "repulsed" by his negativity. She started bullying him then...and the idea was that she was capable of cutting to the very nature of his person... The turnaround was so extreme, so vindictive and based on someone in a weak position, that that's what led to his exasperation/panic attack etc.
All the while the theme being that Freddie was weak, self-destructive..in other words negative..and all the comments carried along the same theme, from everyone!. Eg. the morning they were all sitting by the dining room window, Freddie walked by in his dressing gown, and a whole series of comments being made under their breathe..like Lisa's "I feel like I'm in a mental asylum"..
Grade A bullying.
But what doesn't add up is how she actually *got away* with turning events on their head, by victimising herself and protesting the fact that it was her who was being bullied for being *negative*... by Freddie, Marcus, Siavash. I must have missed something. Did the HL's leave out a whole other side to the story or a dynamic that we didn't see? Or were certain comments left out? How she got away with victimising herself- I still don't understand.
I'm only aware of one comment that Freddie made- warning her about talking behind peoples' backs etc. Did I miss something?
Lot's of other points that don't add up. But this first

I think you have hit the nail on the head there. It was the sudden turnaround. It was the fact that her 'ego' was looking bad because Freddie was acting a bit silly and immature (bless him) in DR etc. on the 'rebellion' day, and she wanted to start disasociating herself from that as she wanted to look 'cool' etc. in the eyes of the others (I was watching her body language).
Also, previous day to that, Freddie had the audacity to dare make one remark that she was being 'negative' in a conversation at the bus-stop where she had been laying into him - once he had said this, that was it for her and she NEVER let it go. She had to turn it against him (as he said - 'projected her own faults onto him') in order for her to maintain her ego.
A very scary person imo - she needs to learn about that!
